1 In this study, we found that substitution of a highly conserved tryptophan at position 1246 with cysteine (W1246C-MRP1) in the putative last transmembrane segment (TM17) of MRP1 eliminated 17beta-estradiol 17-(beta-D-glucuronide) (E217betaG) transport by membrane vesicles prepared from transiently transfected human embryonic kidney cells while leaving the capacity for leukotriene C4- and verapamil-stimulated glutathione transport intact.

2 In addition, in contrast to wild-type MRP1, leukotriene C4 transport by the W1246C-MRP1 protein was no longer inhibitable by E217betaG, indicating that the mutant protein had lost the ability to bind the glucuronide. Login to comment
5 In addition to the loss of E217betaG transport, HeLa cells stably transfected with W1246C-MRP1 cDNA were not resistant to the Vinca alkaloid vincristine and accumulated levels of [3 H]vincristine comparable to those in vector control-transfected cells. Login to comment

54 Mutant MRP1-GFP fusion proteins were generated by replacing the 1.3-kb BsmBI/EcoRI fragment in the pcDNA3.1(-)-MRP1K-GFP construct with the comparable fragment containing either the W1246C or W1246A mutation generated above and designated pcDNA-3.1(-)- W1246C-MRP1-GFP and pcDNA3.1(-)-W1246A-MRP1-GFP, respectively.

106 The DNA fragments obtained were of the size expected, and when sequenced, it was discovered that, in addition to the P196A mutation, the transfected copies of MRP1 cDNA in the first cell mutant line with an altered phenotype contained a G 3 C nucleotide mutation, resulting in substitution of cysteine for tryptophan at position 1246.

122 Subsequent kinetic analyses of LTC4 transport by the W1246C-MRP1 mutant indicated that its affinity for this substrate was reduced compared with wild-type MRP1 (Km ϭ 189 nM versus 79 nM), but the Vmax values for the two proteins were similar (40.6 versus 35.1 pmol/mg/min).3 These results indicate that substitution of Trp1246 with Cys reduces the affinity of MRP1 for this substrate, but that the transport capacities of the mutant and wild-type proteins are comparable.

123 In contrast, uptake of E217betaG by the W1246C-MRP1 mutant was dramatically reduced and was comparable to that of the vector-transfected controls (Fig. 2C). Login to comment
125 Thus, the ability of E217betaG to inhibit LTC4 transport by the W1246C-MRP1 mutant was examined, and the results are shown in Fig. 2D. E217betaG (25 ␮M) inhibited LTC4 transport by wild-type MRP1 by 54%, as expected. Login to comment
126 In contrast, E217betaG had no effect on LTC4 transport by W1246C-MRP1, indicating that the loss of E217betaG transport by the mutant protein is associated with a loss of binding of this substrate. Login to comment

205 In contrast, a second independently derived transfected cell line also expressing an MRP1 protein with the same P196A mutation displayed a phenotype similar to that of cells expressing wild-type MRP1.2 It was subsequently discovered that the transfected MRP1 in the first P196A mutant cell line had acquired a second non-engineered mutation causing the substitution of Cys for Trp at position 1246. Login to comment
206 Consequently, we generated a single W1246C mutant of MRP1 so that its phenotype could be compared with that of the double P196A/W1246C mutant. Login to comment
207 When transiently transfected into HEK293T cells, W1246C-MRP1 could be expressed at levels comparable to those of wild-type MRP1 and also transported LTC4 with a similar efficiency. Login to comment
209 However, as observed for the double P196A/ W1246C mutant, transport of E217betaG by W1246C-MRP1 membrane vesicles was not detectably different from that obtained with vesicles from vector control-transfected cells, and although LTC4 transport appeared unchanged in the W1246C mutants, it could no longer be inhibited by E217betaG. Login to comment
210 Taken together, these results allowed us to conclude that the altered phenotype of the P196A/W1246C-transfected cells was attributable to the single tryptophan substitution at position 1246 in MSD3 and did not require the additional proline substitution at position 196 in the cytoplasmic loop between MSD1 and MSD2.

211 Additional mutants in which Trp1246 was substituted with Ala, Phe, and Tyr displayed transport characteristics similar to those of W1246C-MRP1, indicating that replacement of the tryptophan residue rather than the introduced cysteine was responsible for the phenotype. Login to comment

213 In addition to the selective loss of E217betaG transport, we found that W1246C-MRP1-expressing cells were no longer resistant to natural product chemotherapeutic agents, including the electroneutral VP-16 and the cationic vincristine and anthracyclines. Login to comment
214 Consistent with this loss of drug resistance, vincristine accumulation in intact cells expressing W1246C-MRP1 was comparable to that in vector control-transfected cells, which was ϳ2-fold higher than vincristine accumulation in HeLa cells expressing wild-type MRP1. Login to comment
215 On the other hand, the W1246C-MRP1-expressing cells were still resistant to antimony tartrate and partially resistant to sodium arsenite. Login to comment

234 Thus, the absence of E217betaG transport activity and drug resistance in the W1246C-MRP1 mutant can be explained by the fact that although cysteine can participate in hydrogen bonding, it is considerably smaller than tryptophan and lacks aromaticity. Login to comment

198 However, this was not the case for membranes prepared from transfected HEK cells expressing either the K332L or W1246C mutants. Login to comment
200 We found that GSH-independent estrone 3-sulfate transport by W1246C was similar to negative controls, whereas transport by K332L was comparable with wild-type MRP1. Login to comment
202 In contrast, impaired transport by the W1246C mutant is caused by a loss of binding of the sulfated estrogen. Login to comment
207 On the other hand, as might be expected because mutation of Trp1246 has little or no effect on transport of either GSH or the GSH-containing LTC4 (Table 2; Fig. 6), the inhibitory potency of S-decyl-GSH was the same for the W1246C mutant and wild-type MRP1. Login to comment
208 The inhibitory potencies of the non-GSH-containing modulators MK571 and BAY u9773 on LTC4 transport by wild-type and W1246C mutant MRP1 were also comparable. Login to comment
211 However, TM17-Trp1246 seems to be important for recognition of the tricyclic isoxazole derivative LY465803 because the IC50 for this modulator (in the presence of GSH) was approximately 280-fold greater for the W1246C mutant than for wild-type MRP1 (13.2 ␮M versus 46 nM). Login to comment
212 This observation is consistent with our earlier finding that radiolabeling of the COOH-proximal half of the W1246C mutant by [125 I]LY475776, a photoactivateable derivative of LY465803, was substantially reduced relative to the same region of wild-type MRP1 (Mao et al., 2002). Login to comment
214 Effect of small molecule modulators and S-decyl-GSH on [3 H]LTC4 transport by wild-type and W1246C mutant MRP1. ATP-dependent vesicular uptake of [3 H]LTC4 by wild-type MRP1 (open symbols, dotted lines) and W1246C mutant MRP1 (closed symbols, solid lines) was measured in the presence of the indicated concentrations of modulators and S-decyl-GSH.

229 In conclusion, we have extended our characterization of the MRP1 mutants K332L and W1246C and further defined the different roles of these two amino acids in determining the substrate and inhibitor specificity of MRP1. Login to comment

765 Both Lys332Leu and Trp1246Cys mutants were as sensitive as wild-type MRP1/ABCC1 to MK-571, LY171883, and the potent MRP1/ABCC1 inhibitor 6-[4 -carboxyphenylthio]-5[S]- hydroxy-7[E], 11[Z]14[Z]-eicosatetrenoic acid (BAY u9773, a leukotriene-like dual antagonist that acts on both CysLT1 and CysLT2 receptors) [341].

768 In contrast to its more potent inhibitory effect on E217 G transport by the Lys332Leu mutant, MK-571 was a less potent inhibitor ( 3-fold) of LTC4 transport by the Trp1246Cys mutant than by wild-type MRP1. Login to comment
769 However, similar to Lys332Leu, the inhibitory potency of BAY u9773 for LTC4 transport by wild-type and Trp1246Cys was comparable. Login to comment
